  • Publication number: 20200025501
    Abstract: The muzzle brake attaches to a distal end of the barrel of a firearm, typically a handgun, either built into the firearm or as an accessory attachable to the firearm. The muzzle brake includes a propelling nozzle in the form of a central chamber aligned with proximal and distal openings aligned with a barrel of the firearm. This propelling nozzle extends upward, generally expanding in cross-section, to a rim where it opens above the firearm near a distal end of the barrel. The shape of the propelling nozzle (or series of nozzles) is preferably selected to optimize downward reactive force when expanding gases discharged from firearm discharge expand upward out of the propelling nozzle. A downward reactive force is thus created which counteracts recoil of the firearm.

  • Patent number: 8037634
    Abstract: A gun sight system featuring point-to-point visual alignment is provided. A front sight coupled to a forward end of a gun includes a top sighting point and optionally lateral sighting points. A rear sight coupled to a rearward end of the gun includes a pair of spaced apart rear lateral sighting points each visually alignable with and visually touching one of the front lateral sighting points or the top sighting point for visually touching the top sighting point with a target while simultaneously visually aligning at least one of the rear lateral sighting points with a point on the front sight.
